A basketball hoop for James who loves shooting hoops

Posted Apr 4, 2023
In his teen years, James really flourished and become a social butterfly, constantly keeping himself busy. He works, participates in school activities, and puts his education first, even considering a military career in the future. James is about to celebrate his birthday and he would love his own basketball hoop so that he can play without needing to go out to a park. James used to have a hoop, however, it was destroyed by a storm and he hasn't had the funds to get a new one. This would be the perfect gift for him so that he can enjoy basketball even through his busy schedule.

James is 20 years old and lives in NC

James is a fun loving young man that enjoys time with family and friends. He loves sports, video games, and going to church. He is doing well in school and looks forward to going each day. One of his favorite things to do is to watch UNC Tarheels basketball games.
